He’s so poisonous to humanity I find myself wondering several times a day: “Is Murdoch dead yet?” But no, he’s still going strong, making the world a better place for Christian, conservative, white, middle-class straight people.

Seems like the gay agenda does like people knowing the homosexual lifestyle is a choice, and that people may want to change and that some people have changed their sexual preference, and have never looked back…

Lu, you mean like Michael Bussee and Gary Cooper, two of the co- founders of Exodus, who left the group to marry each other? Or John Paulk who was found in a gay bar after his “conversion”? Such successful “cures”, wouldn’t you agree?

Oh, LU, we’re all embarrassed for you here. Did you even try to go to school?

Of course we could include NARTH in this conversion therapy bracket… I wonder what George Rekers’ success rate is with ex-gay therapy?
He must be one of the straightest guys on the planet, with his wide experience as an evangelical conversion therapist and NARTH spokesperson. Does anyone happen to have an update as to how George is doing with his little outreach project?

My god some of the comments on there are just so bad! People get disliked for saying it’s wrong and unfair, and the homophobic comments are getting liked. I’ve heard of the b.itching against Daily Mail before but now I totally see why. It’s awful, they’re so ignorant and bigoted! Don’t give that much of a hoot though, I’m a homo and it’s brilliant. Thanks for the link too Mumbo Jumbo, totally signed it. Got something like 91,000.

Apple are taking too long with this. I get free speech and all, but you cannot ban anti-semantic and racist apps, but let homophobic ones through. You have to keep up the same standard for all hate groups against people who have done nothing wrong/born with it i.e. being gay, or being black. It’s like starting a group called ‘Cure for being blonde’ .

Yep, its even slicker if you ask me. I have a Desire myself. My partner has an iPhone, and I much prefer the Desire’s interface.You can put what ever size SD Memory card in them and put what ever music you want to fill the card!

I see that the Scientist whos research was abused by Exodus has came out calling for this App to be removed.

“Dear Messrs. Jobs and Cook,

This message serves as a request to remove the Exodus International application from Apple’s iphone offerings because the website content is objectionable. It erroneously cites my research (Remafedi 1992) in support of claims that homosexuality can be changed.”

Perhaps high-profile Apple enthusiast Stephen Fry could be persuaded to tweet his displeasure. So far he’s not commented, but he is known to Steve Jobs and has said a lot of good things about iPad in the past.

Frankly, I find all the Apple bashing quite tiring and a little ridiculous. I know of very few companies that are as openly pro-gay as Apple. The fact that they don’t censor everyone for holding a less than gay-friendly opinion is quite different from being homophobic.

As for the app, I would have to download it to be able to give an adequate judgement on it but I obviously don’t intend to do it. I’ve had a look at the app’s page on iTunes and it simply lets people check on upcoming events from Exodus international, etc.

I’m surprised that everyone is getting up in arms about this app, but no one cares, for instance, about their Facebook page which offers the exact same content and is arguably accessible to many more people, probably younger and more impressionable too.

This imbalance leads me to question whether this has more to do with an antipathy for Apple’s market dominance than Exodus itself, and judging by some of the comments on here, that rather seems to be the case.

They needn’t have said there is no objectionable content. It’s not comparable with Facebook, because Apple themselves chose to rate the app as not offensive.

Although the BBC gave a lot of coverage to the iPad launch, including this positive contribution from Stephen Fry, they have not yet reported the news that the company has recently disappointed many people.

Facebook also delete objectionable content. Why is no one collecting signatures to ask Facebook to delete Exodus’ page?

Apple’s review of no objectionable content basically means there is no pornography, no incitement to hatred and similar. If this application is nothing more than a way to let members know when upcoming events are, are we saying that anything this organisation does should be blocked?

I’m all for discrediting their work but I’m not sure I’m comfortable with this degree of control over who can advertise their events, have a blog, etc.

Anything in the app store is legitimised by apple. The fact the app implies sexuality is a choice is hateful. Therefore apple agrees that sexuality is a choice supporting and is backing hateful Christians geddit? And Stephen fry jumped on jan moir but put his toys before us what a twat.

Apple does not agree that sexuality is a choice and has proven this time and time again by supporting the fight against prop 8, banning discrimination against it’s workforce, etc. Apple’s record speaks for itself.

Are you an idiot. You can’t upload any app to the store it goes through an apple vetting process therefore apple gives it legitimacy. Facebook has I hate queers pages any nutter can set one up geddit? If not don’t reply and start revising for you’re olevels.

People power is needed. Vote with our money and boycott all APPLE products. This will hurt the company more than protests will. Put all businesses and companies on notice. You want our business, so you have to support us, or else.

one typo that I noticed too late, it’s nice that you tried to debate and engage me but you didn’t try to be rational, apple is cool and there’s many sites that have homophobia that gets ignored but at least with the apps you can try to get the app banned, you’ve actually gave that Lu some ammo

In all fairness, the vile creature that calls itself LU doesn’t need ammo…. people that that are stuck in an endless loop of irrational religious dogma and the love of persecuting others. All you can do with cretins like that is call them out for the lunatics they are.

Chester people like LU should not be tolerated or treated with anything resembling respect shun ,mock and insult them they hate you and always will because they know deep down they have an attraction to someone of the same sex. These are the most dangerous people we will ever encounter
